New LIMITED EDITION shade specially formulated for the Pasifika Collection 2010, Taaniko is a New Zealand Maori word describing the intricately woven borders made from flax (muka) fibre at the edge of cloaks and as a textile decorative edging. although usually natural, black and tan in shade, occasionally woven sections of this deep impressive red shade would be sparingly worked in.
Note : All the names, shades, and symbolism of the design of the Pasifika collection products are inspired by the tapa (barkcloth) & other traditional textile techniques of New Zealand & the Pacific Islands. All maori names and indigineous symbols are used in form of tribute, with all due respect out of our deep admiration for the Pacific traditions, and are not meant to cause offense to anyone.
We hope you really enjoy this glimpse of a journey into Pacific culture....
